Though Dragon Ball GT is officially non-canon, it left an undeniable legacy with its unique character designs, new lore, and memorable villains.

As Dragon Ball Super continues expanding the multiverse and divine hierarchies, fans are eager to see some of GT’s most iconic characters return—this time with modern redesigns, deeper backstories, and proper development.

Here are 8 Dragon Ball GT characters fans are begging to see reintroduced in Dragon Ball Super.

8. Oceanus Shenron – The Elegant Elemental

Oceanus Shenron, the Shadow Dragon of water and wind, stood out as one of the rare female antagonists in Dragon Ball. Her stylish and flamboyant appearance, mixed with her dual-element abilities, would bring a fresh dynamic to Super.

Fans imagine her reimagined with lore connected to Namekians or even tied to Oolong’s infamous wish. She’s perfect for comedic elegance—and fierce, elemental battles.

7. Eis Shenron – The Cunning Ice Villain

Eis Shenron’s cold-hearted tactics made him one of GT’s most loathed villains. His return could finally give Dragon Ball Super a clever, manipulative antagonist akin to Zamasu—but with more raw arrogance.

Eis’s cheap tricks would make for a great rivalry against a more honorable hero, offering a narrative of redemption through defeat.

6. Nuova Shenron – The Noble Dragon

Nuova Shenron was the exception among the corrupted dragons honorable, selfless, and loyal. He formed an emotional bond with Goku, and fans believe his return could deepen that connection.

As a reformed fighter or tragic antihero, Nuova could fight alongside the Z Fighters, providing both powerful combat and emotional stakes.

5. General Rilldo – The Techno-Tyrant

This mechanical powerhouse screamed 90s anime villain—and fans loved it. With his geometric, machine-based design, General Rilldo would be a fascinating addition to Super’s multiverse. He could serve as a warlord from a hyper-advanced universe, or as the weapon of a new techno-deity. Either way, he fits the current chaos of Super perfectly.

4. Ledgic – The Silent Swordsman

Ledgic made a strong impression despite limited screen time. His quiet honor and swordsmanship won Goku’s respect—a rare badge of honor. With fans comparing him to Hit, a return featuring dual-wielded blades and strict warrior code would deliver on fan service and cool choreography. He’s ideal for a tournament-style arc or an elite mercenary plotline.

3. Omega Shenron – The Final Boss Reimagined

The ultimate antagonist of GT, Omega Shenron boasted one of the franchise’s most intimidating designs. Even without the full Shadow Dragon arc, fans want him back—possibly as a corrupted wish from the Super Dragon Balls or a rogue God of Destruction. A climactic showdown against Ultra Instinct Goku, Ultra Ego Vegeta, and Beast Gohan would be legendary.

2. Majuub – The Fusion with Untapped Potential

Majuub, the fusion of Uub and Majin Buu, was underused in GT. Dragon Ball Super offers the perfect opportunity to correct that.

As the reincarnation of Buu, he could be a next-generation Z Warrior, full of untapped power and inner conflict. His interactions with Beerus, Whis, or even Broly could lead to dynamic training arcs and surprising character development.

1. Baby – The Saiyan Slayer Returns?

Baby remains GT’s most complex and compelling villain. A bio-engineered Tuffle, he sought revenge against the Saiyan race—and his motives would resonate even more today, with Goku fully embracing his Saiyan roots.

A well-written return could transform Baby into a divine-level antagonist, potentially driving one of Super’s most intense arcs yet.

Dragon Ball Super has already revived fan-favorite concepts from older series. With the multiverse in full swing, it’s the perfect time to reintroduce these GT legends with updated lore and stronger writing. Whether it’s for nostalgia, new power scaling, or emotional growth— GT characters still have more to give.
